The ‘play,’ using family dolls who are self and family representatives, helps reveal the feeling life of the preschool child.”

WAYS TO Support the Harlem Family Institute
The Institute traditionally derives its income from foundations, individual contributors, partner organizations that host its clinical-treatment centers, and its students.
Though the Institute is working to increase its revenue from the schools and community organizations that host its clinical-treatment centers, it is also eager to expand its financial support from foundations and individual donors.
To this end, it is working to lift its public profile and is seeking to develop relationships at all levels to increase its financial support.
It is interested in partnering with organizations or individuals who can help it achieve its goals and is preparing products for individuals to encourage them to donate or bequeath funds.
If you would like to work with us to support the Institute's mission, please contact us.
